Configuring a Security Profile

Context

You need to configure a security profile and a security policy for the Mesh to ensure security. The WPA2+PSK+AES security policy is recommended for a Mesh security profile. For details about WPA2, PSK, and AES, see WLAN Security Configuration.

The security policy can be set to open system authentication only for the Mesh network in rail transportation scenarios.

By default, the system provides the Mesh profile default. Both the default Mesh profile default and a self-defined Mesh profile have the security profile default-mesh referenced by default. In the security profile default-mesh, the security policy is set to WPA2+PSK+AES and the security key to huawei_secmesh. If the default security profile default-mesh is used, you are advised to change the security key of the profile to ensure security.
